We will meet at the Somerset Heritage Centre, Brunel Way, Norton Fitzwarren, Taunton TA2 6SF at 10am.  The session will end at 4pm back at the Heritage Centre.

The weather looks good so we will be walking from the Heritage Centre to Norton Fiitzwarren hillfort (about 10 mins walk).  We will be taken on a guided tour around the hillfort by the County Archaeologist Bob Croft and also digging a couple of test pits.

We will be outside all day so please bring:

Sturdy and practical footwear (Bob Croft stressed this)

Sunhat and sun cream
A warm coat/fleece as even thought it’s sunny the wind can be very cold at this time of year and there is no shelter on the hillfort
Lunch, drinks and snacks
Gardening gloves if you have them
Garden kneeler if you have one

Toilets are available at the Heritage Centre before we leave and we will do a toilet run back to the Heritage Centre at lunchtime.

If you haven’t already done so you need to email to book your place on this session as it’s important we know how many are coming.

Any questions please get in touch.
